Object placed at two initial positions along the principal axis of a converging lens.
Object placed at two initial positions along the principal axis of a converging lens.
An object is positioned on the principal axis to the left of a thin converging lens of focal length \(f\). A student investigates the resulting displacement of the image relative to the lens when the object is shifted a small distance toward the lens for two different initial setups: Case 1, where the object distance satisfies \(d_o > f\), and Case 2, where \(d_o < f\). Which of the following correctly predicts the direction of motion of the image relative to the lens in each case as the object moves toward the lens?
